What happens when the vaccine turns out to sterilize 40% of people who get it? Honkey be laughing now!
You say that like things rushed through for non-scientific reasons have a risk of bad side effects. How absurd!
(Laughs in thalidomide.)
Anyone seen Utopia yet?
And actually, Thalidomide was very thoroughly tested on a variety of species. Unfortunately, it only affects one non-human the same way it does the human - and that species is, ironically enough, the Guinea "Pig". And I recall reading a few years ago where it was being reinvestigated for other uses, with, of course, the caveat that pregnant human women can't have anything to do with it, no matter what.
And Dr. Kelsey apparently saw something in those test results that the governments of a bunch of other countries didn't (though not specifically about birth defects as I recall) and refused approval, leading to pressure on the FDA to approve the drug in the US as it was internationally, rather than waiting for further testing. I mean if I'm wrong about that do feel free to point out something other than the official line.
And yeah, it's apparently a good drug for other things.
